Wilkerson Nature Preserve offers public programs for a variety of ages throughout the year.
Self-Guided Nature
Explorer backpack kits are available for free on a first-come, first-served basis whenever the park is open.
Scouts, home schools, and other groups are welcome to use the preserve for self-guided studies. There are walking trails, wildlife watching, or you could loan one of our binoculars, kites, or explorer backpacks with compass, bug viewing box, and more.
Please make sure to:
- Call the park before you bring your group here to find out if the facilities are being used by park staff or another group.
- Stay on park trails and follow park rules.
- Leave no trace of your visit.
- Let park staff know ahead of time if you are planning to check out any of our free nature study equipment.
